Been in to his studio/tearoom/shop today whilst on a visit to family, lovely place, lovely people, lovely pots.On a bit of scouting the internet, seems he was a student with Doug Fitch and mentioned in his blog 'The Devonshire Pottery' http://slipware.blogspot.co.uk/2008/11/snuff-stuff.html Alfreton, ("the grim old mining town") may be full of Charity shops, which is great for affordable treasures.... if DD doesn't get there first!... but it's surviving a superstore invasion, and is quietly sheltering a good potter (just my opinion).
